Yeah, I've checked the serial number and it is a 1952 (FBH 3770xx X1). I also have his owners manual and it was delivered in March of '52.
For the last 30 years (all I can remember, I'm 33) it was pretty much just used for planting (that's what the hydraulic line was for), mowing w/ a sickle and running an auger off the pto. For the last 15 years it has pretty much only been used to run the auger. It probably hasn't been started in 12-18 months. I plan on checking it over real well before we try to start it. I appreciate all the suggestions. It helps to hear the ideas.
I think at one point he had mounted cultivators on it, but my dad said my grandpa sold them to his brother a long time ago. The sickle mower is still around and I'll probably fix that up as well.
